Wish List

EECM Wish List //

Would you like to donate food or other items? The EECM Wish List can help you decide what to donate. Like cash, these donations can be tax-deductible. If you would like to donate , please call 412-361-5549 to learn our most current and urgent needs, and to arrange a time to drop off your donations.

We are unable to accept clothing donations. If you have used clothing to donate, we recommend taking it to East End Community Thrift, located at 5123 Penn Ave. (15224). They can be reached at 412-361-6010.

Donations to EECM’s Hunger Programs may be brought to the EECM Food Pantry from 8AM-2:30PM, Monday-Friday, and will be accepted at the loading dock, on the Harvard Street side of Community House. Call Paul Lenzi, Food Donations Coordinator, at 412-345-7152 to schedule up a drop-off.

Please note that EECM WILL NOT ACCEPT expired or opened food items.

FOOD DRIVES are a great way to help EECM, and can be done in your neighborhood, school, or place of work. You could do a general food drive for non-perishable goods or you can focus on a single item.
